This is the real deal. Excited to have Xianxia/Xuanhuan in VN form.
Has almost all the usual cultivation troupes.
Yaoguai Cultivator(Awakened Animals), Pill Refining(wish it goes into detail), Innate Talents(Ice Born/Heavenly Body), Cultivation system/ranks, Cultivation Laws(not sure what law they are cultivating, i'm assuming its the 3 Swords law), Techniques(Sword Dao/Shadowless Sword), Domains, Artifacts & Spirit Weapons.
Pill Refiners using their cauldrons as spirit weapons, All female Sect where the Sect Master is against her Prime Disciple falling in love, All male Sect practicing Shendao instead of Xiandao, Forbidden Techniques to temporarily jump Realms, Cultivator with overbearing father with unrealistic expectations, the different races & realms, rivals & grudges.
Cultivation ranks are named differently that the norm, i'm assuming Qi Transcendance is the Golden Core realm?
As its mentioned there's a huge jump between Qi Mastery and Qi Transcendence.
Does the cultivation have Heavenly Tribulations at Qi Transcendence & Qi God realms?
Also the cultivation realms are all Mortal Realms? I'm assuming there's a whole new set of cultivation realms after Qi God meant for Immortal Realms?
Plus there's a world called Upper Realms which the sect master ascended to, so kind of supports the theory there's more cultivation realms after Qi God.
Anyways looking at the direction the story is going, i'm theorycrafting that the MC's father was a Soul Realm cultivator(forbidden love). Deity Realm possibly allied with betrayers of the Demon Realm to overthrow Vannyr's family so they can be the new demons in charge. Deity Realm hunted Dragons to extinction and eventually imprisoned Aetherius to be the Nexus Guardian. Possibly Deity Realm caused the Demon invasion by helping rivals of Vannyr's family, in some sort of powerplay to seize control of the lower realms. The true mastermind is hiding in the Upper Realms. The necklace is some sort of sentient artifact/imprisoned soul capable of travelling to different worlds, that's being hunted down by Upper Realms & their cronies(possibly Deity Realm) and also by the evil faction in the Upper Realms(and their lapdogs Soul Realm).
Anyways i hope there'll be a couple of seasons of this VN.
